The Dutch duo behind the beloved Fantastic Man magazine have teamed up with Acne to produce the 'Gentleman's Jeans', a pair of slightly tapered slim-ish fitting dark denim jeans. The Fantastic Man editors Gert Jonkers & Jop van Bennekom describe it thus:
"It's reminiscent of a style that we'd see on our fathers and uncles -- the dreaded pleated denim chino -- but then updated and made wonderful for today and for ourselves."
Taking the origins of jeans as workwear as a starting point Acne have adapted the classic trousers for the modern man, and they suit formal wear as much as a casual look. They are available from Acne's online store for £170.
I'm sorry, I think there's something wrong with the site, old posts about Acne/Fantastic Man and Mad Men is popping up. I mean they must be months and months old! Or maybe it's just my screen or something..
